http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNGuYC7OCmw 3:58 is one of the best transitions I've ever heard using stutter effects. Aksesson - Perfect Blue has a pretty good one too near the beginning.
Silence is pretty effective, even if you just let the track fade into nothing for a measure or two with anything that's delayed/reverbed playing until it's quiet, and then bringing everything back in.
I also liked throwing in 2 measure breaks, where you build up to the end of an 8/16 measure phrase and instead of leading into a new phrase, interrupt it with 2 measures of whatever transitions you want before leading back into it. It gives a lot more impact to otherwise boring reverse cymbals or stutters or whatever, I think, and it creates a lot of tension.
Dunno if any of this stuff is standard or would fit with the music you make, but they're things that work well enough for me. |
That is a great stuttered break, not heard that particular track before. I'm doing a break at the moment where i've got a delay on the master where i'm automating up the mix level (feedback a constant 100%) while also filtering it down to nothing and then letting it all drop back in.
I like the idea of building up to a buildup too
